Good time Charlie’s on the evening news
\nThe party’s gone public, grab your dancin’ shoes
\nPass it around ’til we all get stoned
\nWe’ll all come down when the money’s all gone.<\/p>\n
Everybody’s livin’, everybody’s high
\nEverybody’s sellin’ so buy, baby, buy
\nEverything’s had and nothing is owned
\nAround it goes ’til the money’s all gone.<\/p>\n
[Chorus]<\/i>
\nWhen the money’s all gone we’ll get back to work
\nGet back in the garden, get back in the dirt
\nIt’s an ill wind doesn’t blow some good
\nWe can put it back together the way that we should.
\nIt might not be the worst thing after all…
\nWhen the money’s all gone.<\/p>\n
There’s only so much that can go around
\nThe top goes up but the bottom goes down
\nCall it what you want to
\nTell me I’m wrong
\nWe’ll all find out when the money’s all gone.<\/p>\n
When the money’s all gone we’ll get back to work
\nGet back in the garden, get back in the dirt
\nIt’s an ill wind doesn’t blow some good
\nWe can put it back together the way that we should.
\nIt might not be the worst thing after all…
\nWhen the money’s all gone.<\/p>\n
Lose a little, you can scream and shout
\nBut you gotta lose big ‘fore they bail you out
\nThey’ll buy the bank so they can take your home
\nThey don’t need you anymore when the money’s all gone.<\/p>\n
When the money’s all gone…
\nWhen the money’s all gone.<\/p>\n
When the Money’s All Gone<\/i>
\nJason Eady & Kevin Wilkins<\/p>\n
I’ve been listening to Jason Eady<\/a>‘s music a lot lately, especially the preceding song from the album of the same name<\/a>. The iTunes Store puts his music into the Country genre, but I think that’s too limiting for the mixture of delta blues, zydeco, rock, and gospel that wraps around lyrics that manage to be simultaneously intelligent and catchy. When The Money’s All Gone<\/i> is a perfect example. It’s as good an economic commentary as you’ll find in the Wall Street Journal<\/i>, and a heck of a lot more danceable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Good time Charlie’s on the evening news The party’s gone public, grab your dancin’ shoes Pass it around ’til we all get stoned We’ll all come down when the money’s all gone.
